I agree with Wouter (did I just say that???).

At the end of the day, we have to give the OA and especially the PRO some leverage to use their discretion. We are very careful who we choose to run these events, and no one gets to run a NAs without lots of experience, especially experience with our class.

Having said that, I would not be opposed to Bob's solution (4 per day), except that I would add a clause to allow one extra to make up or get ahead, to deal with Murphy. This would get the plan in writing, and everyone lives with it if the weather doesn't cooperate.

The majority of us racing in the Hobie classes don't want a planned lay day for the NAs. Nor do we want just two or three races per day, except maybe on the last day if we've gotten 4 in per day all week before that.

There's tons of other factors.
